This is my first proper intelligence report about our operation in the taus' given the recent encounters and skirmishes we've had. As you may all know, a small group of the Black Guard has been redeployed to assist the Revolutionary Cell or "Cadre" in the Taus and bordering Omicrons, in which the S.C.C|BG - Zapata will be acting as center of opeartions. As of late, our foot in the door in this region has been a group referring themselves as the Maltese Opposition Army which has been led by a mysterious figure known as Whisper.
Their goals seem to be to get rid of the National Council of Malta, the current ruling power in the Omicrons whom organizes the outcasts, and replace it with a people's government; to the extent of how this will be organized will be up to us to influence towards a communist approach. On the issue of Cardamine, they seek to regulate the flow of Cardamine. Now, there may be concerns among some of you over the collaboration with the Outcasts due to their use of "Cardamine". The Outcast biologically need it to survive, this is scientific fact. But what the M.O.A do that offers a layer of tolerance is they understand how cardamine is truly being used in Sirius - that is as a lethal drug. They seek to ensure the importing and exporting of Cardamine does not go out of Maltese systems, and that it is only ever consumed by the Outcasts.
I believe this group is worth the foot in the door into this area, which leads to what we discovered. According to M.O.A, there is a group of outcasts whose identity has yet to be thoroughly explained which seems to base out of Omicron Taus - given our last fight - who sells Cardamine. Of course, we do not want this distribution of Cardamine to go beyond the Maltese space lest we allow it to be a growing commodity closer to the Omegas. This group of outcast seem to be extremely wealthy to be able to possess a fleet of their own , almost a fraction of what the Maltese navy could actually muster. This group seems to be working privately and separate from the national council of Malta - N.C for short.
I brought along with me, our newest Commissar Zhang Ze-Dong to grab some intelligence. My key focus was to trace back where the fleet was spotted when we flew into the Omicron Tau systems and what significance did their rally point bring. To our surprise, we both found an installation floating in space nearby a planet which is covered in a radiation field. According to our transponders, the identification of this installation seems to go under the name of "Estremadura Base". This installation seems to be minimally protected whenever this fleet is not present, but we did run into some outcast patrols that we were quick to destroy before they could report our presence.
